Funny how the bouncer denied my sober friend for “being drunk” but at the same time, a pair of intoxicated people tripped out the bar, clearly from drinking INSIDE barbar, and the bouncer let them go on their way. Then minutes later he lets a group of people who bragged to the bouncer about being intoxicated into the bar. And we were being rude for being upset? okay sure. 1 star.

Really weird experience with their “bouncer”. As I was walking up my friend who is sober (and has epilepsy) was accused of being “drunk” and refused service to the bar. I asked the bouncer what was going on because I was very confused why he was picking on my friend. Two ladies at this same time walked out of Bar Bar stumbling over each other enough that they ran into me - not a peep from the bouncer. He accused me of yelling (I was not lol) and said no entry for my sober friend so we left. Incredibly unprofessional service. Additionally, this was an hour from closing and the bar was not at capacity - we have no idea why this happened.

My friends and I visited this place for some food last night to celebrate New Year’s. When we reached the door, one of our party members was denied entry. He has a medical condition that prevents him from drinking, while the other person was allowed in. During our conversation, the second person mentioned that he had been drinking, but the first person had not. Consequently, he switched who he would allow entry to, simply because the second person said he had been drinking. Upon reviewing past reviews, it appears that this “bouncer” has some difficulty understanding what constitutes intoxication. — no name tags of course but it’s guy with the bull septum ring cause he probably wants to appear like one.

Cozy ambience with both outdoor and indoor space, with a pool table. Drink is on the refreshing side but a bit light handed.

Pretty chill around lunch time, but a really good burger and the cocktails were great. Asked for a Last Word and they knew exactly what it was. Big patio is a plus, but the pros of the outdoor space can be a con when someone is smoking somewhere and it's just getting sucked in. Otherwise, a great cocktail joint.

Bar Bar, so good they named it twice. Haha.
It is a nice chill spot to meet up with friends for a couple of beers. We ordered food. I ended up getting a basic burger with American cheese. It hit the spot for bar food. Also mushrooms were ordered too but failed to get a photo.
